BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The invention relates to a compressor of a turbocharger.

2. Description of the Related Art

A typical compressor of a turbocharger includes a single impeller and one flow passage. The compressor tends to surge when running at low speeds and tends to block when running at high speeds, and cannot meet the requirement for high pressure ratio, wide range of flow, and high efficiency. A two-class turbocharged system is employed to solve the above-mentioned problems. However, the two-class turbocharged system is bulky and difficult to install, and its manufacturing costs are high.

In a class of this embodiment, a ratio of the width of the air inlet of the compressor inner flow passage to the width of the air inlet of the compressor outer flow passage is nonequivalent to the ratio of the width of the air outlet of the compressor inner flow passage to the width of the air outlet of the compressor outer flow passage.

In a class of this embodiment, the compressor impeller comprises an impeller air inlet and an impeller air outlet. A partition plate is circumferentially disposed on the compressor impeller between the impeller air inlet and the impeller air outlet. The partition plate divides the impeller air feeding flow passage into an impeller air feeding inner flow passage communicating with the compressor inner flow passage and an impeller air feeding outer flow passage communicating with the compressor outer flow passage.

In a class of this embodiment, a partition wall is disposed inside an air inlet channel between the compressor impeller and the compressor air inlet. The partition wall is circumferentially arranged and extends in an axial direction. The partition wall divides the air inlet channel between the compressor impeller and the compressor air inlet into an inner channel of the compressor air inlet and an outer channel of the compressor air inlet.

In a class of this embodiment, the outer channel of the compressor air inlet is disposed outside an outer circumference of the inner channel of the compressor air inlet.

In a class of this embodiment, the inner channel of the compressor air inlet is corresponding to and communicates with the impeller air feeding inner flow passage. The outer channel of the compressor air inlet is corresponding to and communicates with the impeller air feeding outer flow passage.

In a class of this embodiment, a distance between one end of the partition wall in the vicinity of the compressor air inlet and the impeller gas inlet is between 60 and 100 mm. A distance between one end of the partition wall in the vicinity of the compressor air inlet and the compressor gas inlet 3 is between 5 and 20 mm.

In a class of this embodiment, a plurality of fixed guide vanes is uniformly disposed inside the outer channel of the compressor air inlet.

In a class of this embodiment, the outer channel of the compressor air inlet, the impeller air feeding outer flow channel, and the compressor outer flow passage are normal open flow passages.

In a class of this embodiment, a butterfly valve matching with the inner channel of the compressor air inlet is disposed inside the inner channel of the compressor air inlet in the vicinity of the compressor air inlet. The butterfly valve is provided with a valve shaft, and the valve shaft is integrated to the butterfly valve. The valve shaft is in transmission connection with a control mechanism. The butterfly valve is driven by the control mechanism to rotate along the valve shaft whereby opening or closing the inner channel of the compressor air inlet.

In a class of this embodiment, an adjustable valve is disposed inside the compressor inner flow passage in the vicinity of the air outlet of the compressor inner flow passage. One end of the adjustable valve is connected to a valve shaft. The valve shaft is in transmission connection with a control mechanism. The adjustable valve is driven by the control mechanism to rotate along the valve shaft whereby opening or closing the compressor inner flow passage.

In a class of this embodiment, a plurality of adjustable guide vanes is uniformly disposed in a circle inside the compressor diffuser in the vicinity of the impeller air outlet. A ratio of a number of the fixed guide vanes to a number of the adjustable guide vanes is between 0.2 and 6.

In a class of this embodiment, each adjustable guide vane is in rotary connection with a fork lever. The fork level is in rotary connection with a fork plate. The fork plate is driven by a control mechanism to rotate so as to achieve rotation of the adjustable guide vanes and to open or close the compressor inner flow passage.

In a class of this embodiment, the inner channel of the compressor air inlet, the impeller gas feeding inner flow channel, and the compressor inner flow passage are normal open flow passages.

In a class of this embodiment, a plurality of adjustable guide vanes is uniformly disposed inside the outer channel of the compressor air inlet in the vicinity of the impeller air inlet. Each adjustable guide vane matches with a corresponding gear. The gear is correspondingly provided with a gear disk. The gear disk is driven by a control mechanism to rotate so as to achieve rotation of the adjustable guide vane and to open or close the outer channel of the compressor air inlet.

In a class of this embodiment, an adjustable valve is disposed inside the compressor outer flow passage in the vicinity of the outlet of the compressor outer flow passage. One end of the adjustable valve is connected to a valve shaft. The valve shaft is in transmission connection with a control mechanism. The adjustable valve is driven by the control mechanism to rotate along the valve shaft whereby opening or closing the compressor outer flow passage.

In the above technical solution, when the outer channel of the compressor air inlet, the impeller air feeding outer flow passage, and the compressor outer flow passage are normal open flow passages, the working process of the scheme of arranging the butterfly valve in the vicinity of the compressor air inlet, the working process of the scheme of arranging the adjustable valve at the air outlet of the compressor inner flow passage, and the working process of the scheme of arranging the adjustable guide vanes at the compressor diffuser are the same.

When the motor works at low speeds, the butterfly valve, the adjustable valve, or the adjustable guide vanes disposed at the compressor diffuser is driven by the control mechanism to rotate to close the inner channel of the compressor air inlet or the air outlet of the compressor inner flow passage. Because the impeller air feeding inner flow passage and the compressor inner flow passage communicate with the inner channel of the compressor air inlet, the impeller air feeding inner flow passage and the compressor inner flow passage are also at a closed state. Driven by the centrifugal force produced by the rotation of the compressor impeller, fresh air is sucked into the outer channel of the compressor air inlet and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding outer flow passage and the compressor outer flow passage to participate in combustion. As a cross sectional area of the air inlet channel of the compressor housing is reduced, the surge of the compressor at low speeds is effectively improved.

When the motor works at intermediate or high speeds, the butterfly valve, the adjustable valve, or the adjustable guide vanes disposed at the compressor diffuser is driven by the control mechanism to rotate and to open the inner channel of the compressor air inlet or the air outlet of the compressor inner flow passage, so that the impeller air feeding inner flow passage and the compressor inner flow passage are simultaneously opened, and the fresh air is driven by the centrifugal force produced by the compressor impeller and sucked into the inner channel of the compressor air inlet and the outer channel of the compressor air inlet. The fresh air entering the inner channel of the compressor air inlet is driven by the centrifugal force and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding inner flow passage and the compressor inner flow passage to participate in the combustion. The fresh air entering the outer channel of the compressor air inlet is driven by the centrifugal force and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding outer flow passage and the compressor outer flow passage to participate in the combustion. As the cross sectional area of the air inlet channel of the compressor housing is enlarged, the flow rate of the intake air at the intermediate or high speeds is effectively broadened, thereby improving the motor performance.

When the inner channel of the compressor air inlet, the impeller air feeding inner flow passage, and the compressor inner flow passage are normal open flow passages, the working process of the scheme of arranging the adjustable guide vanes in the vicinity of the impeller air inlet is the same as the working process of the scheme of arranging the adjustable valve in the vicinity of the air outlet of the compressor inner flow passage.

When the motor works at low speeds, the adjustable guide vanes or the adjustable valve are driven by the control mechanism to rotate to close the outer channel of the compressor air inlet or the air outlet of the compressor outer flow passage. Because the impeller air feeding outer flow passage and the compressor outer flow passage communicate with the outer channel of the compressor air inlet, the impeller air feeding outer flow passage and the compressor outer flow passage are also at the closed state. Driven by the centrifugal force produced by the rotation of the compressor impeller, the fresh air is sucked into the inner channel of the compressor air inlet and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding inner flow passage and the compressor inner flow passage to participate in the combustion. As the cross sectional area of the air inlet channel of the compressor housing is reduced, the surge of the compressor at low speeds is effectively improved.

When the motor works at intermediate or high speeds, the adjustable guide vanes or the adjustable valve are driven by the control mechanism to rotate and to open the outer channel of the compressor air inlet or the air outlet of the compressor outer flow passage, so that the impeller air feeding outer flow passage and the compressor outer flow passage are simultaneously opened, and the fresh air is driven by the centrifugal force produced by the compressor impeller and sucked into the inner channel of the compressor air inlet and the outer channel of the compressor air inlet. The fresh air entering the inner channel of the compressor air inlet is driven by the centrifugal force and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding inner flow passage and the compressor inner flow passage to participate in combustion. The fresh air entering the outer channel of the compressor air inlet is driven by the centrifugal force and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding outer flow passage and the compressor outer flow passage to participate in combustion. As the cross sectional area of the air inlet channel of the compressor housing is enlarged, the flow rate of the intake air at the intermediate and high speeds is effectively increased, thereby improving the motor performance.

Advantages according to embodiments of the invention are summarized as follows: the compressor of the turbocharger is capable effectively improving the surge the compressor at low speeds and as well as effectively broadening the flow rate of the intake air at high speeds, thereby improving the performance of the motor. The compressor housing and the compressor impeller are excellent in the structural succession and are easy to achieve engineering.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

For further illustrating the invention, examples detailing a compressor of a turbocharger are described below. It should be noted that the following examples are intended to describe and not to limit the invention.

EXAMPLE 1

As shown in FIGS. 1-2, a compressor of a turbocharger comprises a compressor housing 1 and a compressor impeller 2 disposed inside the compressor housing 1. A compressor flow passage is disposed inside the compressor housing 1. The compressor housing 1 comprises: a compressor flow passage, a compressor air inlet 3, and a compressor air outlet. The compressor flow passage is connected to the compressor air inlet 3 and the compressor air outlet. The compressor impeller 2 comprises an impeller feeding flow passage. The impeller air feeding flow passage is connected to the compressor air inlet 3 and the compressor flow passage.

The compressor flow passage comprises a compressor inner flow passage 7 and a compressor outer flow passage 8 which are arranged side by side on the compressor housing. A ratio of a width W1 of an air inlet of the compressor inner flow passage 7 to a width W2 of an air inlet of the compressor outer flow passage 8 is between 0.1 and 10.

A compressor diffuser 4 is disposed at the air inlet of the compressor inner flow passage 7.

The compressor air outlet comprises: an air outlet 9 of the compressor inner flow passage connected to the compressor inner flow passage 7 and an air outlet 10 of the compressor outer flow passage connected to the compressor outer flow passage 8. A ratio of a width W3 of the air outlet 9 of the compressor inner flow passage to a width W4 of the air outlet 10 of the compressor outer flow passage is between 0.1 and 10.

A ratio of the width W1 of the air inlet of the compressor inner flow passage 7 to the width W2 of the air inlet of the compressor outer flow passage 8 is nonequivalent to the ratio of the width W3 of the air outlet 9 of the compressor inner flow passage to the width W4 of the air outlet 10 of the compressor outer flow passage.

As shown in FIGS. 3-4, the compressor impeller 2 comprises an impeller air inlet 5 and an impeller air outlet 6. A partition plate 11 is circumferentially disposed on the compressor impeller 2 between the impeller air inlet 5 and the impeller air outlet 6. The partition plate 11 divides the impeller air feeding flow passage into an impeller air feeding inner flow passage 12 communicating with the compressor inner flow passage 7 and an impeller air feeding outer flow passage 13 communicating with the compressor outer flow passage 8.

As shown in FIG. 1, a partition wall 14 is disposed inside an air inlet channel between the compressor impeller 2 and the compressor air inlet 3. The partition wall is circumferentially arranged and extends in an axial direction.

The partition wall 14 divides the air inlet channel between the compressor impeller 2 and the compressor air inlet 3 into an inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet and an outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet.

The outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet is disposed outside an outer circumference of the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet.

The inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet is corresponding to and communicates with the impeller air feeding inner flow passage 12. The outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet is corresponding to and communicates with the impeller air feeding outer flow passage 13.

The outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet, the impeller air feeding outer flow channel 13, and the compressor outer flow passage 8 are normal open flow passages.

A distance H between one end of the partition wall 14 in the vicinity of the compressor air inlet 3 and the impeller gas inlet 5 is between 60 and 100 mm. A distance h between one end of the partition wall 14 in the vicinity of the compressor air inlet 3 and the compressor gas inlet 3 is between 5 and 20 mm.

A plurality of fixed guide vanes 17 is uniformly disposed inside the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet. In one respect, the structure design mainly functions in fixing and connecting the partition wall 14 and the compressor housing, and in another respect, it is capable of effectively guiding the exhaust gas from the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet to smoothly enter the impeller air feeding outer flow passage 13.

A butterfly valve 18 matching with the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet is disposed inside the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet in the vicinity of the compressor air inlet 3.

The butterfly valve 18 is provided with a valve shaft 19, and the valve shaft 19 is integrated to the butterfly valve 18. The valve shaft 19 is in transmission connection with a control mechanism. The butterfly valve 18 is driven by the control mechanism to rotate along the valve shaft 19 whereby opening or closing the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet.

As shown in FIG. 5, when the motor works at low speeds, the butterfly valve 18 is driven by the control mechanism to rotate along the valve shaft 19 to close the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet. Because the impeller air feeding inner flow passage 12 and the compressor inner flow passage 7 communicate with the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet, the impeller air feeding inner flow passage 12 and the compressor inner flow passage 7 are also at a closed state. Driven by the centrifugal force produced by the rotation of the compressor impeller 2, fresh air is sucked into the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding outer flow passage 13 and the compressor outer flow passage 8 to participate in combustion. As a cross sectional area of the air inlet channel of the compressor housing 1 is reduced, the surge of the compressor at low speeds is effectively improved.

As shown in FIG. 1, when the motor works at intermediate or high speeds, the butterfly valve 18 is driven by the control mechanism to rotate along the valve shaft 19 and to open the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet, so that the impeller air feeding inner flow passage 12 and the compressor inner flow passage 7 are simultaneously opened, and the fresh air is driven by the centrifugal force produced by the compressor impeller 2 and sucked into the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet and the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet. The fresh air entering the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet is driven by the centrifugal force and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding inner flow passage 12 and the compressor inner flow passage 7 to participate in the combustion. The fresh air entering the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet is driven by the centrifugal force and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding outer flow passage 13 and the compressor outer flow passage 8 to participate in the combustion. As the cross sectional area of the air inlet channel of the compressor housing 1 is enlarged, the flow rate of the intake air at the intermediate or high speeds is effectively broadened, thereby improving the motor performance.

EXAMPLE 2

As shown in FIGS. 6-7, on the basis of Example 1, the butterfly valve 18 disposed inside the inner channel 15 of the compressor gas inlet is deleted. An adjustable valve 20 is disposed inside the compressor inner flow passage 7 in the vicinity of the air outlet 9 of the compressor inner flow passage. One end of the adjustable valve 20 is connected to a valve shaft 19. The valve shaft 19 is in transmission connection with a control mechanism. The adjustable valve 20 is driven by the control mechanism to rotate along the valve shaft 19 whereby opening or closing the compressor inner flow passage 7.

Working process of this example is as follows: as shown in FIG. 7, when the motor works at low speeds, the adjustable valve 20 is at the closed state (the adjustable valve is indicated as a solid line in the figure) under the drive of the control mechanism. Driven by the centrifugal force produced by the rotation of the compressor impeller 2, the fresh air is sucked into the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding outer flow passage 13 and the compressor outer flow passage 8 to participate in the combustion. As the cross sectional area of the air inlet channel of the compressor housing 1 is reduced, the surge of the compressor at low speeds is effectively improved. Because the adjustable valve 20 is closed, the fresh air is prevented from entering the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet, the impeller air feeding inner flow passage 12, and the compressor inner flow passage 7. When the motor works at intermediate or high speeds, the adjustable valve 20 is at the open state (the adjustable valve is indicated by a dash line in the figure) under the drive of the control mechanism, and the working process at this working condition is the same as the working process at the intermediate or high speeds of the motor in Example 1.

EXAMPLE 3

As shown in FIGS. 8-9, on the basis of Example 2, the adjustable valve 20 disposed at the gas outlet 9 of the compressor inner flow passage is deleted. A plurality of adjustable guide vanes 21 is uniformly disposed in a circle inside the compressor diffuser 4 in the vicinity of the impeller air outlet 6. A ratio of a number of the fixed guide vanes 17 to a number of the adjustable guide vanes 21 is between 0.2 and 6.

As shown in FIG. 10, each adjustable guide vane 21 is in rotary connection with a fork lever 22. The fork level 22 is in rotary connection with a fork plate 23. The fork plate 23 is driven by a control mechanism to rotate so as to achieve rotation of the adjustable guide vanes 21 and to open or close the compressor inner flow passage 7.

The control mechanism in Example 3 is not limited to the fork lever control mechanism and can be control mechanisms of any structures.

Working process of this example is as follows: as shown in FIG. 11, when the motor works at low speeds, the adjustable guide vanes 21 are at the closed state under the drive of the control mechanism. Driven by the centrifugal force produced by the rotation of the compressor impeller 2, the fresh air is sucked into the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding inner flow passage 12 and the compressor inner flow passage 7 to participate in the combustion. As the cross sectional area of the air inlet channel of the compressor housing 1 is reduced, the surge of the compressor at low speeds is effectively improved. Because the adjustable guide vanes 21 are closed, the fresh air is prevented from entering the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet, the impeller air feeding outer flow passage 13, and the compressor outer flow passage 8. As shown in FIG. 9, when the motor works at the intermediate or high speeds, the adjustable guide vanes 21 are at the open state under the drive of the control mechanism, and the working process at this working condition is the same as the working process at the intermediate or high speeds of the motor in Example 1.

EXAMPLE 4

As shown in FIGS. 12-13, the compressor of the turbocharger in Example 4 is different from those in Examples 1-3 in that the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet, the impeller gas feeding inner flow channel 12, and the compressor inner flow passage 7 are normal open flow passages. On the basis of Example 1, the butterfly valve 18 disposed at the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet is deleted. A plurality of adjustable guide vanes 21 is uniformly disposed inside the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet in the vicinity of the impeller air inlet. Each adjustable guide vane 21 matches with a corresponding gear 24. The gear 24 is correspondingly provided with a gear disk 25. The gear disk 25 is driven by a control mechanism to rotate so as to achieve rotation of the adjustable guide vane 21 and to open or close the outer channel of the compressor air inlet.

The control mechanism in Example 4 is not limited to the gear control mechanism and can be control mechanisms of any structures.

Working process of this example is as follows: as shown in FIG. 12, when the motor works at low speeds, the adjustable guide vanes 21 are driven by the control mechanism to rotate to close the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet. Because the impeller air feeding outer flow passage 13 and the compressor outer flow passage 8 communicate with the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet, the impeller air feeding outer flow passage 13 and the compressor outer flow passage 8 are also at the closed state. Driven by the centrifugal force produced by the rotation of the compressor impeller 2, the fresh air is sucked into the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding inner flow passage 12 and the compressor inner flow passage 7 to participate in the combustion. As the cross sectional area of the air inlet channel of the compressor housing 1 is reduced, the surge of the compressor at low speeds is effectively improved.

As shown in FIG. 13, when the motor is at the intermediate or high speeds, the adjustable guide vanes 21 are driven by the control mechanism to rotate and to open the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet, so that the impeller air feeding outer flow passage 13 and the compressor outer flow passage 8 are simultaneously opened, and the fresh air is driven by the centrifugal force produced by the compressor impeller 2 and sucked into the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet and the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet. The fresh air entering the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet is driven by the centrifugal force and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding inner flow passage 12 and the compressor inner flow passage 7 to participate in the combustion. The fresh air entering the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet is driven by the centrifugal force and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding outer flow passage 13 and the compressor outer flow passage 8 to participate in the combustion. As the cross sectional area of the air inlet channel of the compressor housing 1 is enlarged, the flow rate of the intake air at the intermediate or high speeds is effectively broadened, thereby improving the motor performance.

EXAMPLE 5

As shown in FIG. 14, the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet, the impeller gas feeding inner flow channel 12, and the compressor inner flow passage 7 are designed to be normal open flow passage. On the basis of Example 1, the butterfly valve 18 disposed at the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet is deleted. An adjustable valve 20 is disposed inside the compressor outer flow passage 8 in the vicinity of the outlet 10 of the compressor outer flow passage. The adjustable valve 20 is connected to a control mechanism and achieves the opening or closing of the compressor outer flow passage 8 driven by the control mechanism.

Working process of this Example is as follows: when the motor works at low speeds, the adjustable valve 20 is at the closed state (the adjustable valve is indicated as a solid line in the figure) under the drive of the control mechanism. Driven by the centrifugal force produced by the rotation of the compressor impeller 2, the fresh air is sucked into the inner channel 15 of the compressor air inlet and compressed and accelerated by the impeller air feeding inner flow passage 12 and the compressor inner flow passage 7 to participate in the combustion. As the cross sectional area of the air inlet channel of the compressor housing 1 is reduced, the surge of the compressor at low speeds is effectively improved. Because the adjustable valve 20 is closed, the fresh air is prevented from entering the outer channel 16 of the compressor air inlet, the impeller air feeding outer flow passage 13, and the compressor outer flow passage 8. When the motor works at intermediate or high speeds, the adjustable valve 20 is at the open state (the adjustable valve is indicated by a dash line in the figure) under the drive of the control mechanism, and the working process at this working condition is the same as the working process at the intermediate or high speeds of the motor in Example 4.

In the Examples 1-5, as shown in FIG. 15, when only a small compressor flow passage works, it indicates a characteristic curve chart (indicated by dash lines) of a small compressor; when only a large compressor flow passage works, it indicates a characteristic curve chart (indicated by solid lines) of a large compressor; and when two compressor flow passages are designed to co-work, a characteristic curve chart of the compressor cover the characteristic curve chart of the large flow passage compressor and the characteristic curve chart of the small flow passage compressor. It is obviously known from the chart that the range of the flow rate of the intake air is broadened by adopting the technical scheme of the invention, and two independent efficiency circles appear, so that the performance of the compressor is improved.
